Time out

February 3, 2013

The week of January 20th saw the Rebels win two and lose one ballgame. The Rebels defeated Jesup 62-56, lost to West Marshall 75-44, and beat North Tama 61-53.

The Jesup game was closely contested with no one with a lead bigger than 4 points until the 2:30 mark in the fourth quarter. That was the point in the game where the System finally got to the J-Hawks. The Rebels stole the ball three times in a row and scored! Jesup called a time out to regain their composure and get a rest. Again the Rebels stole the ball twice in a row and scored. That sequence helped seal the win!

The next night North Tams came to town. The Rebels led from start to finish in this hard fought ballgame. We were able to build a 16-point lead in the middle of the fourth quarter. The Redhawks were able to cut that in half but could get no closer. We need to play smarter and stronger in those types of situations.
